Thiel Owners
@thieliste - just wondering if you might have needed the GAIA 1’s instead of the GAIA 2’s? I messaged Isoacoustics about them for my CS3.6’s which weigh about 108 pounds and told them that I was considering putting 3 of the GAIA 1’s (which are rat... 
Requesting upgrade advice
could you clarify what "tylers" under your speakers are?  
Shunyata Altaira Grounding Station ........has anybody purchased this new product ?
I just watched a YouTube about it with the CEO of Shunyata being interviewed by Absolute Sound magazine. It sounds interesting for sure. He talked about star grounding and the importance of having grounds be independent from one another. So, yes I... 
Low cost SACD player with remote, display and SACD over HDMI
How does the Sony XA-5400ES sound with SACD over HDMI into a compatible DAC?  
Vinyl selections from Band Camp that were cool.
Thanks @lmnop . I looked up the selections you listed. I may buy a few of them. The vinyl does tend to sell out.

Michael P. Dawson is who I was referring to in my 1st post .  
It was 61 years ago today...
Wouldn't that be "59 years ago today..." or are you making a play on whatever Beatles song I'm thinking of?  
Where in the US to send my Linn Sondek LP12.
If you have an LP12 languishing in the corner it may be time for you to bring it up to spec and disuss with the Linn "fettler" your upgrade options. I bought the Akurate Radikal power external power supply/upgraded motor kit for like $4100. This ... 
Cross breeding of isolation racks
I bought a Grand Prix Audio Monaco rack that I’m about to implement in my system. The review Inread seemed to says that additional footers under the gear are unnecessary and might actually degrade the SQ some if you try doubling up isolation. How ... 
Where in the US to send my Linn Sondek LP12.
@sktn77a - sorry for a 2 year delay but I think I can describe the LP12 update now that I have been living with it. Short answer is that “it is really great and I love it!”    I had a hum issue where the Bryston BP-2 MM had this scary low frequen... 
Thiel Owners
One other remark I would make about the Isoacoustics GAIA feet: there was some discussion on a YouTube comparison video with the Townshend Audio ones that involved ported vs non-ported enclosure designs and they seemed to say that the ported desig... 
Thiel Owners
For those Thiel owners who are contemplating using Isoacoustics GAIA footers beneath their speakers, I am eagerly awaiting your reviews of how it impacted the sound quality. I am a CS3.6 owner and my speakers sit atop of Sound Anchors stand that I... 
Siren noise increasing in volume with Maze Audio Ref 4 Krell cryo power conditioner-wall.
On their forum, if you mention aftermarket power cords the responses to questions can be limited.I’ll probably experiment some more and maybe email Bryston or Gary Dayton again. 
Devore Fidelity Orangutan O/96
I have only read the reviews of the DeVore Orangutan’s. I would love to listen to a set but living in Dayton, Ohio I am not sure if there are any dealers nearby me. But I just wanted to comment that I thought I read that the DeVore speakers are hi... 
Vinyl collection, now what?
@hleeid, The Bryston BP-26 preamp is what I have. I do not have an installed phono stage for it. I recently purchased the Bryston "1/3 chassis" BP2-MM moving magnet phono stage and have it tied in to my Bryston BPS-2 external power supply via a "y...
